Afro Samurai: Resurrection is now available to stream on both Hulu and Tubi, offering viewers a chance to revisit one of the most distinct visual experiments of the 2000s. Picking up after the events of the original series, the film follows Afro as he is forced out of his brief retirement to reclaim his father’s remains and his stolen Number One headband from the vengeful Sio and a resurrected Jinno.
Produced by Studio Gonzo, the film leans heavily into the franchise's signature blend of hip-hop aesthetics, anachronistic technology, and hyper-violent swordplay. While it functions as a direct sequel, it maintains the same gritty, anti-hero focus that defined the original five-episode run. With a 7.35 MAL score and a runtime perfect for a single sitting, it remains a standout for those looking for high-octane, stylized action.
